After trying the Blue Raspberry flavored Twizzlers, I am not really sure what I feel about the product, and though I really don’t have a problem with them, I wouldn’t recommend it only because it has that “iffy” quality to it. Where I don’t feel that it something worth …

Peanut butter is an essential part of my life now. Lots of people swear by almond and cashew butters, which are fancier, but I love the classic peanut butter and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to give it up. Powdered peanut butter is still something new to me, …

There is really nothing all that wonderful or impressive about Mrs. Freshley’s Glazed Cake Donuts, aside from the fact that the donut itself is actually a pretty good size. Everything else is really pretty much on the average side. The amount of glazed icing found on the donut is …

I don’t care what brand I try, be it Pepperidge Farm, New York Style, Mama Cozzi’s, whatever, they all offer a five cheese Texas Toast and they all stink. When something reads “Five Cheese”, I personally think I’m in for something that’s going to be super cheesy, rich in …
